I had smelted the rest of my range scrap yesterday. All I had to do today was heat, flux, and pour into ingots. I ended up with around 35lbs range scrap ingots.

After that I wanted to make a little room in my small loading building. I had 9 buckets of WW's hogging up room. I ended up smelting 4 buckets. Not alot, but its the most I have ever done in one day. It filled a milk crate up to the handles with RCBS ingots well placed. I had a heck of a time sliding it under my bench. I'm geussing about 400 ingots. Did it all in a dutch oven and turkey fryer. I wondered why everyone would complain about being sore after smelting, now I know. Should sleep good tonite, but its Sunday and I never sleep good on Sunday nites. Thanks for letting me ring your ear, Tom

Probably from watching the Bengals or Browns . . . . nightmares if you happen to catch both.

Comes from working for a #### for 11 years. The dude had me a nervous wreck. Past that now though, work for a pretty good company whos bosses are 60 mile away. Cant beat that.
